Mapping Science and Technology Innovation of China

Management and decision-making of science and technology in the era of big data needs capabilities of data mining and analysis on massive data, simulation of complex systems, identification and prediction of potential risks and opportunities of science and technology development. China's scientific and technological innovation map (CSTIM) comprehensively utilizes information technologies including text analysis, information organization, data mining, and visualization to meet the requirements of science and technology management and decision-making in China. It realizes the dynamic, interactive, and visual display of China's scientific and technological innovation information. It could be used to analyze different levels of scientific and technological innovation such as nation, region, province, city, institution and individual researcher. It aims to help users to discover the laws of scientific and technological innovation, predict the possible trends, and support national, regional, provincial, municipal and innovative agencies' management and decision-making of science and technology.
